Background
Completed undergraduate work ( B Sc (Hons) ) at the University of Melbourne. Completed graduate work ( PhD) at Harvard University.
Research
I do research in number theory and arithmetic geometry. I am particularly interested in the theory of automorphic forms and their relationship to Diophantine equations and the Galois theory of number fields (the area known as ``The Langlands Program'').
